Charlize Theron Won't Get Married Until Gay Friends Can

Actress Charlize Theron has no plans to marry her boyfriend of eight years, Stuart Townsend until there is marriage equality. On Thursday's episode of 'The View,' the actress revealed, ""I don't want to get married because right now the institution of marriage feels very one-sided, and I want to live in a country where we all have equal rights," Theron said.

I dont think equal rights are the issue. Gay marriage is not about equality. It is about granting a vocal minority group equal recongnition as married couples. If this was about equal rights then people would be opening marriages to having more than one partner, marring cousins, etc.

I REFUSE TO GET MARRIED FOR TOTALLY GOOD REASONS, HER REASONS IN MY OPINION ARE INSANE. GEEZ WAITING FOR GAYS TO BE ABLE TO GET MARRIED YUK ! CHARLIZE WHAT THE HELL ????JUST GOES TO SHOW THIS WHOLE DAMN COUNTRY IS GOING TO HELL IN THE PROVERBIAL HANDBASKET.

Pro-equality? What the heck is that? Marriage is not just a tradition. It is an institution created by God. No where in the Bible does God ordain gay marriages. God did, however, give man specific instructions regarding his union with his WIFE, and woman clear instructions regarding her union with her HUSBAND. As for the comment that heterosexual marriages are failing, that is based on the two people who marry. People spend more time picking out furniture than they do a suitable mate.

What a stupid remark! Don't get married. Who cares? Who is she intending to hurt? What does gay marriage have to do with her marriage plans? May just be she's gay. Perhaps she is just as stupid as the character she played in the movie "Monster." Not watching any more of her films. Ba bye stupid person.
